Due to the game's notoriously glitchy codebase, the ''Master Chief Collection'' went without significant updates for several years. In October 2017, 343 Industries announced a revitalised effort to revisit the game and update it with new patches and content, due to their plans to update the game for 4KUHD on the Xbox One X. To ensure that future patches would work as intended, 343 Industries implemented the "MCC Insider Program", a program designed for select players to be able to download and beta test MCC update releases.<ref name="Insider1">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/mcc-development-update '''Halo Waypoint''' ''- MCC Development Update'']</ref> The program was initially closed to a select few thousand people, but soon grew to become an open program that anyone could join. The program is now used to test all content updates the MCC gets, with the game's UI, main menu background, new Skulls and more being added in post-launch updates. After the announcement of PC support, a completely separate Insider program for PC was made available for anyone to sign up for. | Due to the game's notoriously glitchy codebase, the ''Master Chief Collection'' went without significant updates for several years.
